The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is Nintendo's biggest project to be released this year on the Switch hybrid platform, but as we get closer to the release date, the momentum builds with the lack of information and continued silence about the game, but all this will end soon, and I mean by "soon" Closer than you can imagine, dear reader.
Nintendo has finally announced its intention to showcase gameplay from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on March 28th at 5 PM Saudi Arabian time. The show will be hosted by producer Eiji Aonuma, who will give us a delightful glimpse of the game for a full 10 minutes. The image of Eiji Aonuma with a console nearby seems to indicate that he will play whatever is being shown.
The new installment in the Zelda series was announced at E3 2019, the new main installment, titled The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The world will feature floating islands, new enemies, new abilities, and more that we'll explore tomorrow because there's still a lot of unknowns. Players will explore the world in an "unknown" state, which we hope to learn more about tomorrow.
Join the legend of #Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma for approximately 10 minutes of gameplay from The Legend of Zelda: #TearsOfTheKingdom on 3/28 at 7:00 AM PT on our YouTube channel.
